Milk can become homemade ice cream in five minutes by using a bag! This homemade, creamy treat is a summertime delight for kids and adults alike. Visit our main summer crafts page for more quick and easy warm-weather projects that will delight children.
What you'll need:
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup milk or half & half
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
6 tablespoons rock salt
1 pint-size plastic food storage bag (e.g., Ziploc)
1 gallon-size plastic food storage bag
Ice cubes
How to make it:
Fill the large bag half full of ice, and add the rock salt. Seal the bag.
Put milk, vanilla, and sugar into the small bag, and seal it.
Place the small bag inside the large one, and seal it again carefully.
Shake until the mixture is ice cream, which takes about 5 minutes.
Tips:
A 1/2-cup milk will make about 1 scoop of ice cream, so double the recipe if you want more. But don't increase the proportions more that that - a large amount might be too big for kids to pick-up because the ice itself is heavy.
Here's an improvised version of the homemade ice cream recipe from another parent:
 These are the homemade ice cream ingredients.
Canned and Frozen fruits are of high risk to your health so it is always better to choose fresh fruits. There is always space for fruits in your menu; an ample amount of fruits on the diet is better than meat.
1/4 teaspoon imitation vanilla butter and nut flavor
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup 1% milk
Put the ice-cream ingredients in the small bag, and then put the bag, salt, and ice in the big bag. Hold the bag shut and stir it around on the floor for about 5 minutes. Although the salt pellets hardly dissolved, I got ice cream. It was not as smooth as ice cream, probably because of the low-fat milk. Instead, it was a little like sherbet. I think if I had more ice in the bag, I could have shaken it better. I'd recommend wearing gloves. It is incredible that it is ready in 5 minutes. |
